Without actually seeing it it's not certain, but it looks like the enlarged area is a boss machined onto the frame to act as a spacer for the hammer.

It looks like the actual hammer pin is just a straight pin. To be sure compare the diameter of the pin to the exposed portion on the outside of the frame.
If that's smaller then the broken part, the pin has a reduced section that fits into the frame hole.

Whether this is a pressed in pin or an induction brazed pin is unknown.

Smart move.......Back to S&W for a correct replacement.

If they can't/won't repair it, see Frank Glenn in Arizona for a factory level repair.
